Implementation of a dSPACE-based digital controller for a single-phase UPF two-stage boost rectifier

This paper presents the performances of a linear control technique implemented on a two-stage boost rectifier using dSPACE along with the Matlab/Simulink tool. A linear control scheme is applied to a small signal model of the boost topology and is then downloaded to dSPACE through Simulink. The experimental results are analyzed and compared to the simulation ones. The characteristics of the proposed control scheme are discussed and evaluated in both steady state and transient regimes (load and voltage disturbance).
